The Q3 component is a thyristor. I replaced it, but still have no
display.
Given that I have a totally dead display, I'm not sure it's worth the
effort to re-cap this board.

Thanks phillipe. That would be really nice if you could get some Q2
measurements. Then maybe I can see if I need to order that part as
well.

Well, philippe, I think you have inspired me to re-cap board. Thanks so
much for the part numbers! It would've taken me a long time to get all
the part numbers, and I might have made errors. I went through your
list and noticed that you didn't mention the 2 through-hole caps. Do
you replace
Philippe,
Have you ever had a SB with the condition of an uncontrollable scrolling
display that regressed to a dead display, like mine? And if so were you
able to fix it with a re-cap? Are you talking only about the
electrolytics - like about only 25 capacitors? Or did you do ALL caps?
Have
I checked all the larger e-caps (in-circuit) with an ESR tester and
found five of interest:
These two are almost certainly bad, however, they are apparently related
to the audio, so not implicated in my primary "dead/no display" issue:
C16 - 3.68 uF, ESR > 40 ohm
C20 - 4.25 uF, ESR > 40 ohm
Yes, I tried the Xlinx reset and the other ones you listed. Dead.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
On another thread, I found some voltage check points I was able to pass.
And it seems like the 5V voltage regulator is working.
I'm going to use an ESR meter to do some capacitor testing. I'd
Thanks for the response.
Oh yeah, I forgot to add that I did try it without the WiFi card
installed. Dead.
Also, before I got the replacement PSU, I tried some other PSUs, so
maybe I fried some voltage controller or something.
My Classic v3 recently started scrolling uncontrollably (push up or down
arrow once, and display continues to scroll). Now it is DOA except for
a faint glow of the Toslink jack. I tried a new power supply; no
improvement.
Are there some obvious troubleshooting steps I could try?
I got my problem fixed by doing an uninstall of 6.5.2 (which I had
installed over 6.5.1 in an attempt to fix the artist name display
issue), then did a clean install of the April 5 release 6.5.2 nightly
build.
So I now can see the artist names again.
Thank you!

, however, the artist name disappears.

a SlimServer issue. Has anyone seen this before? Any
thoughts?
